For 'Someone Special'

It's Colour Week at Just Us Girls and Hosting is Sue
choosing
Welcome to today's post.
With such bold bright colours I decided to
go soft on my Trendy Spring Blooms from STAMPlorations
die cutting them in white and highlighting the centres.
I looked at my ribbon collection and found I had
matching ribbons in the  three colours.
Added them to the Henna embossed background
by Darice. Punched out a few smaller flowers
adding gems to the centres.
Finished off with my sentiment from
STAMPlorations Fluttery.
